Would you like to gain skills in research that can transform the world for the better? Do you want to co-design equitable research that contributes to stronger, more responsive, and sustainable communities (especially for those members who are marginalized)? The Community-Based Research Certificate Course: Fundamentals and Excellence will enhance your research capacity with theory, methods, and tools for conducting research with communities. Facilitated by leaders in community-based research, this interactive 8-week synchronous course will take a deep dive into theory that guides this research approach and into practical applications of conducting community-based research. In a small-cohort, you will learn through a combination of lectures, case examples, and group discussions.
Your learnings will culminate in the opportunity to develop your own community-based research proposal, applying what you've learned to a topic you are interested in and receiving feedback from your peers and course instructors. Upon completion, you will receive a certificate from Community Based Research Canada that will recognize your learnings in community-based research and support you on your path as a community-based researcher.
